libxml2 2.9.2 does not properly stop parsing invalid input, which allows
context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds
read and libxml2 crash) via crafted XML data to the (1) xmlParseEntityDecl
or (2) xmlParseConditionalSections function in parser.c, as demonstrated by
non-terminated entities.
